But a year or so ago, .she was still afloat as the training-ship of theNew Jersey state militia. She has every sail uj) except her head-sails and studdingsails. As can be seen at a glance, she was a very lofty craft, and though clewedlip, she has her sky-sails, her royals, her topgallant-sails, her topsails, set on everymast.
